Open positions

We always welcome applications from motivated postdoctoral researcher, PhD student, or Master students.

Applicants for post-doctoral positions

Experience with genetics, molecular biology and/or bioinformatics are required. Applicants wishing to integrate computational and experimental biology approaches are especially encouraged to apply. Current projects focus on the understanding of the gene expression programmes underpinning phenotypic heterogeneity within clonal populations and on how to use that information to refine our knowledge of the basic process of gene expression. To reach that objective we develop and apply novel genome-wide approaches in budding yeast and human cell lines. The successful candidate is expected to take a strong lead on his/her project and start to develop independent ideas. For applications, please contact Vicent Pelechano by email and attach your CV and a brief motivation letter with your research interests.

Applicants for PhD positions or Master students

Students will have the opportunity to learn and help develop a variety of experimental and bioinformatic tools. A theoretical background and / or interest in either functional genomics, transcription, or bioinformatics is beneficial. Students are expected to be highly motivated to work on challenging research projects in an international team. For applications, please send your CV and a brief motivation letter to Vicent Pelechano.

Other opportunities:

The Amgen Scholars Program at Karolinska Institutet (KI) is an opportunity for international and national undergraduate students to conduct research during 8 weeks in the summer at KI.
